What are AIM Speakers?

AIM Speakers January, 2008


Speakers hidden away in walls or ceilings are a huge step toward a more attractive living space. However, sound travels in very predictable patterns. Directing sound to an exact position in a room requires that these patterns converge properly. The introduction of a speaker that actually pivots to the correct position while remaining flush in the wall or ceiling is one of our greatest technological achievements.

The award-winning AIM Cinema series delivers amazing sound quality while providing flexibility to place the speakers wherever the layout or architecture of a room demands. This is important in stereo music applications and even more critical in home theater situations. Every speaker can be carefully placed and aimed to create the perfect sound field.

AIM In-Ceiling
The SpeakerCraft tradition of innovative design, combined with one of the most extensive engineering efforts in this industry's history, has led to the creation of the patented AIM series of fully directional in-ceiling loudspeakers. Each model can be entirely pivoted towards the listener while remaining discretely recessed behind a flush-mounted grille.

If listening position or tastes change, the speaker can be easily aimed in another direction with a simple push of the hand. SpeakerCraft innovation, excellence in engineering, and American made quality make the AIM series one of the most exceptional loudspeakers ever.

The AIM series are the finest sounding in-ceiling speaker system ever created!

AIM LCR Series
Flat panel displays have changed the way we watch movies and television. They also require quality sound to compliment the phenomenal pictures they produce. The AIM5 LCR is a perfect addition beside, above or below any flat panel display. Using only the finest components, these speakers reproduce everything from the most violent explosions to a subtle breeze through the leaves of a quiet forest. They will envelope you in the crescendo of a symphony orchestra or sooth you with the strains of a late-night jazz club.

One of the greatest advantages of the AIM5 LCR is the ability to pivot the entire baffle. You can easily focus the sound in from the left and right channels creating a more realistic sound stage. You can also pivot the center channel speaker up or down to match the listening position which greatly improves the sound of the dialog along with the rest of the soundtrack.

Available in multiple models, there is an AIM5 LCR that is perfect for your system.

AIM Wide
Ceiling speakers have become the first choice for the majority of consumers who are interested in home theater or multi-room installations. At SpeakerCraft, we have addressed this demand in a variety of different models. The new AIM WIDE was originally intended for creating a diffused rear sound field in a home theater. However, it has become clear that customers are just as interested in using them for high-performance multi-room installations.

The AIM WIDE has the same footprint and woofers as the AIM 8. However, the rest of the speaker is a huge departure from that familiar format. A unique dual mid-tweeter module is mounted directly over the woofer with two 2-inch dome midrange drivers and two 1-inch dome tweeters facing 70 degrees off access from each other. The result is ultra-wide dispersion with tremendous fidelity. You will find numerous applications for all three AIM WIDE models. Imagine them in your next installation.
